First setup · LG webOS TV

For LG webOS TV, start with the operating system and the player’s account fields. Install the right application before entering the service login.

First setup on LG webOS TV

A successful installation, an accepted account and working video are three separate results. Keeping them separate makes the first failure much easier to identify.

An Android APK does not become a webOS application. Confirm a native player route before choosing a subscription.

Check the LG webOS TV setup

Platform to identify: webOS; record the TV model and release
Controls used in this guide: The lg remote or magic remote
Keep privately: The app-supported export, account format and current preferences

Use the player’s own controls and the settings for your webOS version, rather than Android menu instructions.

LG webOS TV checklist for first setup

Identify the stage
Open the installed player and identify its login type: username/password with a server choice, M3U link, or portal registration.
Use the LG webOS TV route
Use the LG TV app store available on that model and in that region. An Android APK does not become a webOS application. Confirm a native player route before choosing a subscription.
Compare one useful result
Enter only the account format issued for this player. Test one live channel and one on-demand item that support has confirmed for the trial.
Confirm the outcome
The intended account opens and a chosen test source plays with usable sound and controls.

A detour to avoid for first setup

Do not paste the same string into every field. A playlist nickname is not the username, and a portal address is not automatically an M3U URL.
